HQ2150BH - 150Amp Circuit Breaker

HQ2150BH - 150Amp Circuit Breaker

Replacing a circuit breaker? The catalog number matters, but it's only part of the match. The HQ2150BH is a 150-amp, 2-pole plug-in circuit breaker with a thermal magnetic trip and a 100k AIC rating at 240VAC. It is identified as Type HQPPH and requires at least four panel spaces. If you're maintaining legacy equipment and HQ2150BH is the part number called for, these specifications give you a practical checklist for comparing the replacement with the breaker being removed and the panel documentation.

Key Features and Benefits

• 150-amp rating: Provides the specified current rating for equipment designed to use a 150A breaker.
• 2-pole design: An essential configuration detail when matching the original breaker.
• Thermal magnetic trip: Uses the specified thermal magnetic trip mechanism.
• Plug-in configuration: Important when confirming the physical connection and fit of a replacement breaker.
• Type HQPPH: Helps narrow down the correct breaker when checking existing equipment records or panel documentation.

Where It Works Best

The HQ2150BH 150A circuit breaker is intended for compatible equipment that requires this specific combination of characteristics: 150 amps, two poles, 240VAC, 100k AIC, thermal-magnetic trip, Type HQPPH, and a plug-in configuration. It can be particularly relevant when maintaining legacy equipment where matching the existing breaker's form, fit, and function is the priority.
